does not count  Apr 23, 2009 Very surprised by this one. Light hazy color. Nice slightly fruity head. Light refreshing ginger taste in the background. Foreground taste is a nice summer wheat beer.

Apr 8, 2009 From bottle. Smells only of fresh cut ginger root. Sweet but mostly very spicy and sharp. Light malt undertones and no hops. Dull golden clear with slight haze, topped with creamy off-white lacing head. Medium watery body with medium carbonation. Starts out tasting just like a dry ginger ale, then like a beer flavored strongly with ginger. Lots of ginger root in there, with light malt sweetness. Dregs make it a bit smoother and cloudier, but doesn’t change the taste too much.

Aroma is grainy malt, some wheat and yeast, very light Ginger.
Flavour is sourish wheat, some Ginger spice tones through the middle and a light banana wheat finish with lingering trace of Ginger.

Mar 23, 2009 (Bottle) Interesting, but doesn’t cut it. Ginger is present but not overpowering. I was actually hoping it would be overpowering like in Jamaican ginger beers, and I’m a bit disappointed. The beer quality to this one is a bit disappointing. There’s not much complexity to it. There’s an unpleasant sourness that lingers, however, and does not mesh well with the ginger. It leaves a flat, bitter aftertaste that is less-than-pleasant. Overall, while I love the idea of ginger in a beer, I think this beer is poorly executed.

Mar 18, 2009 Bottle (12oz). Hazy amber, some large dark chunkies, average quick-diminishing fizzy white head. Smells like ginger and sweet peach, slightly floral. Tastes the same - ginger and peach, floral/perfume bitterness, not horrible, I’m surprised - the ginger’s nicely restrained, although it develops a little dry kraft paper taste as it warms. Light bodied, stingingly carbonated, leaves a slightly metallic gingery aftertaste. Better than many ginger beers I’ve had.

Feb 13, 2009 Hazy gelatinous orange with a thin white head that’s gone pretty quick and has a lively look to it. Aroma of ginger, malt, mild corn, dough and mild cola. Taste of ginger, malt and mild corn. Finishes spicy and dry.
